Swell Shuts Down Following Apple Acquisition

What's Apple going to do with Swell? On Sunday, we learned that the Cupertino company had quietly acquired the sleek podcasting app for $30 million. Described as "the Pandora of talk radio," Swell put a heavy emphasis on designing a UI that was easy to use while driving. Users loved it, too.

Thank you for using Swell over the past year. We wanted to let you know that the Swell service is no longer available. We've been inspired by the opportunity to create quality products that positively impact users' lives, and we are grateful to all our listeners. Thank you everyone for your support!
